Just finished Prey on my PC.. It' s pretty slick. I' d recommend it to anyone on PC or 360.
At first I thought all those gimmicky features like portals, wall walking, gravity flipping, bug weapons etc were useless. But added up they actually all work together really well to add another dimension to the game. Really sets it apart from other shooters, especially Doom and Quake etc. There are more open environments, and you really get a feel for how big this alien mother ship is.
The sound and music is something special. The OpenAL effects are great. And the attention to detail is superb. (You' d expect that from a game that took 15 years to develop though!
) The way the weapons move around in your hand is a neat touch.
Visually the game is impressive on PC and 360. And you can expect even more from the game than what the demo shows you. In fact I don' t think the demo does it justice really.
I was playing on a 6800gt at 1024x768 with max details, and although there were jaggies, it was mostly smooth and very enjoyable (some of the more intense battles lagged). I do wish I had f3hunter' s rig though, since I tried it at 1280res and anti-aliasing and it looked absolutely incredible. Id say it looked nicer than the 360 demo at that res, but then the 360 doesn' t look its best on my monitor.
Overall though, I' d rate it pretty highly, even though it was just another fps about aliens. Lasted about 7 hours of playtime in total. Id give it 8/10.
